OK, here is the site;

http://www.yacht-charters.tv

Yes it is old but, it brought a ton of traffic and was always ranked a 5 and bounced back and forth from page 1 and page 2. Now its gone and so is the Ranking. However if you type site: yacht-charters.tv it is listed........ WTF ?

As far as I can tell its not banned or spamming G in any way and yet it seems to be lost in the Bermuda triangle....

In the past month in an attempt to get it back we have tweaked some key words, nothing has worked.

Any thought and or Ideas out there ?

It's normal. Sites go up and down the index all the time. Sometimes they come back, sometimes they don't. wait and find out. If it doesn't come back have a look to see what the people who are ranking well have done.

Meman,
I appreciate your input and opinion however. Its NOT normal to go from a 4 or 5 in page ranking down to 0 (zero) unless there is an issue. Yes it may be normal to bounce around from one number on a page to another but to vanish from the index with no know issues is a mind bender.

It does sometimes happen. I have had sites that ranked well for a number of terms, Then they vanish, In a week or so they come back.

If it's not back in a week or 2 then start looking on your site for a reason google may have dropped you. But i wouldn't start looking or making changes yet.

That is not normal at all. Have you waited for the new PR update to come. That might be all that is. A bug might have kicked you out of the system the last pr update.

Yeah i think you must wait for sometime till it come up and if it doesn't then you have to get started worrying about it and look for the needful on whats wrong in the website in front of the google.

A "bug"? Wait for a PR update?

It's perfectly normal to see fluctuations in where a site appears.
Site can go up the index, right? So what happens to the sites whos place it takes?
What happens if you are querying a datacenter than is using old data?
What happens if google update their algo ni a way that means it no longer thinks your site is good?
What if your backlinks have been removed or devalued?

Are you really an SEO consultant?

Yes google has had bugs before that booted website off their search engines. He isnt talking about flucuations he is saying he was booted. If you can't read. He is saying his site is missing on googel. Google does have PR updates that updates a website PR. Are you a SEO Consultant. Guess not because you can't read.

Here is a phone number you can call to Google. Might help, might not. 650-330-0100 and press 0. or you can go to help@google.com. Tell them you may have been kicked for unknown reasons. This has worked but does take alot of time.

Don’t get panic,
Be sure you haven’t done anything wrong such as keyword stuffing or anything like that which had made Google to kick you off.

What I will suggest you to submit reinclusion request at http://www.google.com/support/bin/request.py and also resubmit your sitemap.
